Abstract (en)
[origin: WO2005023686A1] The invention relates to an in-feed control and dispersion apparatus and a method, in the field of fresh food product industry, and more particularly in the field of fish and poultry food industries, where the apparatus by executing the method receives product from an individual in-feed device, typically from bulk, and delivers it to a receiver unit of any kind. The apparatus (4.10) comprises mainly a first product dispersion device (4.1), a weighing means (4.4) and a second product dispersion device (4.5), whereas the first and second product dispersion device (4.1, 4.5) consist mainly of a base structure (2.5) which has a multiply of through holes or slots (2.6), up through which one or more moveable protruding structures (2.11 - 2.13) extends. The method is based on keeping the amount of product in the first disperser(4.1) at a similar level by controlling the product delivered from the individual in-feed device. The first disperser delivers product to weighing means (4.4) and is stopped when a predetermined amount of product has entered the weighing. means(4.4). The amount of product in the weighing means(4.4) is precisely determined and released into the second disperser (4.5) at the right time such that a predetermined throughput rate is precisely met. Then the second disperser (4.5) delivers the product released from the weighing means (4.4) to the receiver unit.
